Hello again! Let’s jump right into The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 13, Episode 13 recap. Last week, Crystal finally confronted Annemarie about her unhealthy fascination with Sutton’s esophagus. This week’s episode, titled “Tapas and Tattletales,” is set in Barcelona, Spain. Annemarie comes in hot after Crystal. And the ladies are afraid of some creepy supernatural company. Here’s everything that you need to know about RHOBH Season 13, Episode 13!
Sutton brings a friend
As Sutton was packing, she told her property manager, Avi, that she was bringing someone else with her to Barcelona. She is bringing along dancer and choreographer Merce Cunningham. Sutton worked for his studio back in the 90s. Now Avi is tasked with fetching Merce, or his ashes, to pack in Sutton’s suitcase.
Poor Merce isn’t even in an urn. He has spent 12 years in a baggie in Sutton’s closet. How undignified! Finally, she is ready to release him.
Welcome to Barcelona
The villa is located in Sitges, which has a special meaning for Sutton. It was one of the first places in Europe where the Merce Cunningham Dance Company performed. The property is over 700 years old and gorgeous.
As the property manager started to warn the group, Erika was freaking out that the place is haunted. She can “smell” different spirits- and not the sipping kind. Meanwhile, Dorit was nearly convulsing and gripping Erika’s hand. Annemarie was terrified, and so was Garcelle.
Luckily, the ghosts are friendly “little people.” Whatever that means. This is going to be a fun trip! Hopefully one of the ladies will get their prank on.
Stormy weather
Dorit was further traumatized when she saw what her good friend Kyle had packed. Kyle has lots of leather leggings and a bathing suit with a g-string. “Is Kyle looking for her next husband in Spain?” Dorit quipped.
The ladies gathered outside for drinks. But when the cast members met Storm, the chef, some of them were drooling. “We can tag team him,” Garcelle said of Storm. Erika replied, “Anytime you want.” Well, at least no one is worried about the little people now.
After the ladies sat down for dinner, Sutton opened up a container to introduce her guests to Merce. She shared that she was his studio manager for six years. He loved her dancing, and they bonded over that. Even Garcelle was shocked that poor Merce was spending eternity in a Ziploc. Please bring back Storm!
Crystal was in the hot seat
Annemarie wanted to bring up the Homeless Not Toothless Gala again. Sutton checked her for her comment about single people being “lonely and insecure.” Garcelle also wasn’t a fan of Annemarie’s latest pearl of wisdom.
But Annemarie’s real target was Crystal. “The first thing that Crystal said to me about this group of women was that you ladies were not intelligent, nobody was educated and you’re very shallow,” Annemarie said.
While Crystal looked stunned by Annemarie’s claims, Dorit sounded off in her confessional. “You’re nowhere near more educated than the rest of us. By the way, child bride, while you were getting married at 12, the rest of us were building businesses, graduating college,” Dorit stated. “Doing things, you know, to educate ourselves.” Crystal’s wedding photo to her husband Rob flashed on the screen. She was only 24 years old while Rob was 45 years old when they wed.
When asked if she said it, Crystal responded, “I would not say that to someone I just met. I don’t feel that way.” In her confessional, she said, “That’s false. I never said those things.” Shout out to the producers, who showed a clip from 2020 of Crystal calling her co-stars “clearly not highly educated.”
Garcelle detected some truth in Annemarie’s comments
Garcelle noted that in the past, Crystal seemed to believe that some of the ladies weren’t well educated. But Annemarie wasn’t done. She also claimed that Crystal referred to herself as “the only true socialite” in the group. Sutton, of course, is a socialite, and no one is taking that title away.
Still, Annemarie insisted that Crystal wants people to think that she is better than they are. Once again, screaming Crystal was back, and she wanted control of this conversation. She slammed Annemarie for referring to herself as a physician and not a nurse.
Annemarie told Crystal, “I want a thank you for giving you something to talk about and making your ass relevant.” Oh, Annemarie. Please. Stop.
Erika’s earring update
Before heading to church, Erika wanted to share some information with the group, particularly Crystal, about her famous earrings. Back in 2022, Crystal and Garcelle both pressed Erika about not getting rid of the earrings to help the victims.
Erika was thrilled that the district court issued a ruling on her appeal. The court demanded that the trustee prove that the funds to purchase the earrings came from Tom Girardi’s clients’ money. Erika was tooting her own horn for being right, and she was pissed off that no one was acknowledging it.
The group set off for the church in two Sprinter vans. The road to the church was twisty and windy, and Crystal started to feel ill. She asked to be let out of the car, and the veins in her hands were popping out. Annemarie looked at Crystal’s hands as Kyle dialed 911. For what reason, we don’t know, as the ladies are in Barcelona. Not the United States.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills continues on Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
